program for this year. If you want to be on a panel, please let us
know by then.

Is It Worth the Risk?

Tuesday May 11, 2011

Interest in When Words Collide has been phenomenal with
preregistration approaching 33% of our venue capacity of
350. Therefore, we encourage those who are planning to attend but who
have been putting off registering to consider preregistering to ensure
your membership. We are working with the hotel to secure additional
space for next year, but this year we face the risk of having to turn
some people away. To ensure you can attend in August, please register
now.

Programming! Really!

Tuesday April 12, 2011

We have lots of lovely new programming planned. Check it out. The panel descriptions will be
ready very soon so check back later. If you would like to be on any
of the panels, let us
know!

Programming!

Friday March 18, 2011

Programming for a convention isn't as easy as one might
think. Everybody who might want a space has to be consulted and the
scheduling conflicts have to be resolved. Some people back out,
others suddenly decide to participate. It's a nightmare.

Despite the Herculean nature of the task, our programming
committee is making excellent progress as you can see here. There are still gaps but these will
be filled with astonishing goodies Real Soon Now.

Call for art...

Saturday January 22, 2011

Although When Words Collide will not be hosting a
traditional art show, we're looking for artists to spruce up the
convention. If you would like the wealth honour and
glory of having your work appear on this site, in our programming
booklet and perhaps in programming during the Con, please contact the
ConCom. This is an
excellent opportunity for artists to display their work to an audience
including publishers and other potentially paying clients.
